Naturally, Qin Yang couldn't tell the real reason in front of Hou Dongyan. He just made excuses and said that it was just because it was convenient, so he could go back anytime, and then changed the topic.
However, He Jin seemed to be sentenced by the other party's vague eyes just now. Even if he didn't meet Qin Yang's eyes, he could feel the resentment emanating from him!
He Jin grumbled guiltily as he picked up the rice. Qin Yang's attitude made him feel that he had done something wrong, but he thought, what's so awkward about Qin Yang? It wouldn't be too strange if he got angry just because he brought Hou Dongyan to dinner. Yet? Aren't they just friends
... Or am I too sensitive and overthinking it
In short, except for Hou Dongyan, the other two people did not enjoy the meal.
After the meal, He Jin rushed to buy the bill, but Qin Yang didn't argue with him. When he got up, he handed back He Jin's scarf and held another one, his own, dark blue plaid, which was for him to accompany He Jin. The one I bought at the jewelry store on Fuxing Road the night I returned from buying the racket.
When handing over the scarf, their fingers touched slightly, Qin Yang's eyes seemed to be questioning: Why didn't you wear the one I gave you
He Jin shrank subconsciously, lowered his head in panic, and warned himself not to think about it.
After leaving the restaurant, Qin Yang asked, "What are you doing next?"
Hou Dongyan said: "I want to catch a plane, so I have to go to check-in in advance, and when I go back, I have to pack my luggage and go on the road."
Qin Yang looked at He Jin, and He Jin said, "Um, I'm going back to the dormitory to do some cleaning."
Hou Dongyan patted He Jin on the shoulder, embarrassedly said: "Brother Jin, you have worked hard, I will bring you some souvenirs when school starts next year!"
After that, there was nothing to say, and the three said their goodbyes.
As soon as Hou Dongyan left, He Jin was the only one left in the dormitory. He picked up the dustpan and broom, and was about to sweep the floor when he heard the buzzing sound of his wristband.
He Jin looked at the camera, answered the phone, and a square light curtain popped up above the wristband, on which his mother's slightly aged face was projected: "He Jin, are you done with the exam?"
He Jin's mother conceived him at the age of thirty-nine. She retired a few years ago and is now in her sixties.
He Jin: "Well, the last door was yesterday afternoon."
Mother He squinted her eyes and asked, "Why are you wearing glasses again?"
He Jin repeated what he said to Qin Yang at noon, and his mother said: "Oh, then come back early to rest... Have you booked the ticket yet?"
He Jin: "It's booked. The ticket for 2:00 pm next Tuesday will arrive at Q City Railway Station around 7:00 pm."
Mother He frowned: "Next Tuesday? There are three more days? Why can't you decide today's ticket after the exam? What are you going to do in school for the next three days?"
When He Jin heard his mother's suspicious tone, his whole body seemed to be choked, and he said impatiently: "I have to pack things, I have to do a big cleaning today... Besides, the students are on vacation for a few days. The tickets are not easy to buy, I booked them ten days ago, and I postponed them one day because I was afraid of something urgent."
Mother He stretched her head and asked, "Where's your roommate?"
He Jin raised his wristband and scanned the dormitory for her to see: "I just left today."
Mother He saw the things on his desk sharply, and asked, "What is that round thing?"
"Ah, that, that's what Hou Dongyan borrowed... a helmet that improves sleep, a new technological product." He Jin quickly lied, but fortunately the camera was facing the writing desk, so he couldn't capture his flustered expression.
His mother said "oh", stared at him and asked, "You didn't sleep well?"
He Jin: "Well, I've been a little insomnia lately..."
"How can I suffer from insomnia at such a young age? Can the helmet really improve? I don't believe in the technology of the Ministry of Science and Technology. I heard people say that this bracelet is not easy to use. It is not good for the human brain if it is used too much, and it will cause brain age. Demented..." Mother He complained, and then asked some details of He Jin's life, and finally said, "Then you come back and pay attention, the train station is crowded and chaotic, and the New Year is the time when pickpockets and thieves make achievements , don't trust strangers, and don't help others blindly, take care of yourself, you know?"
He Jin: "Well..."
Mother He smiled: "Let your father pick you up when the time comes. The food in school is not good, so you must be afraid of eating it? Mom will cook something delicious for you when you come back!"
He Jin: "Well, okay..."
After half an hour, the typing was finally finished, and the screen disappeared. He Jin sat on the bed blankly, and slowly covered his face with his hands... He was tired of that woman's narrow selfishness and stubbornness, but no matter how much he hated it, he couldn't hate her , because that is also a mother who cares about him, asks about his health, and makes soup for him. That kind of care is mixed with maternal love, and that kind of maternal love is mixed with wishful selfishness... They make He Jin completely contradictory.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the dormitory.
He Jin quickly stood up and responded, "Who is it?"
"Me." It was Qin Yang's voice.
He Jin's heart beat fast, and he hurried out to open the door: "Why are you here?"
Qin Yang was wearing casual clothes, holding an open can of Hedy in his hand, and asked without answering, "Hou Dongyan is gone?" Seeing He Jin nodding, Qin Yang smiled and pushed him into the dormitory...
"You... why..." He Jin couldn't help being nervous when the other party touched his body.
"Didn't you say you need to clean up? I'll help you." After finishing his drink, Qin Yang casually threw the jar into the trash can in the corner of the room, and hit the center of the bucket with a bang.
He Jin blocked him: "No need, I am enough alone."
Qin Yang didn't understand, this guy and "other men" even had children in the game, why did he have such a relationship with him in reality, as if deliberately keeping a distance from himself, this feeling made Qin Yang very uncomfortable Comfortable.
He turned his head to look at He Jin, stared at his face for a while, until He Jin was embarrassed, Qin Yang smiled, and suddenly stretched out his hand to take off the glasses on the bridge of his nose.
"Hey..." His vision instantly blurred, He Jin narrowed his eyes instinctively, half-stretched his hands, and looked in Qin Yang's direction blankly.
Looking at his expression, Qin Yang felt as if his heart was being scratched by a cat's paw. It was numb and itchy, and he was a little angry. He wanted to pounce on him on the spot, press him against the wall, clasp his wrist, and kiss his mouth. .
"Give me back my glasses." Qin Yang's teasing behavior made He Jin frowned, and there was a trace of irritation on his face.
Qin Yang wasn't happy anymore, he had nowhere to vent his pent-up anger while eating, now that he took the initiative to help with cleaning, He Jin would show his face! He folded his eyes and stuffed it into his pocket, said "No", then turned around and went to the bathroom to find a rag.
"You..." He Jin didn't expect Qin Yang to say such a sentence. He was a little fooled by the other party's reaction. He blinked and got used to wearing glasses. He couldn't get used to the blurred vision for a while, so he continued to discuss with the past. want.
Qin Yang put a washing rag in the sink, and when He Jin came in, he said behind him, "Help, just help, where are my glasses, stop making trouble, return them to me quickly."
With wet hands, Qin Yang deliberately teased him: "The left pocket, take it yourself."
He Jin was taken aback, and wanted to approach quickly and take it away. Unexpectedly, as soon as he stretched out his hand, Qin Yang turned sideways, leaving him in vain. He Jin suddenly couldn't laugh or cry: "Hey!" He stretched out his hand and went around, Qin Yang continued Shan, "I said you..." He Jin turned around anxiously.
Qin Yang flicked left and right, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong with me?"
He Jin also laughed angrily: "I said, why are you acting like a child!"
Qin Yang almost twirled half of his body around his waist, causing He Jin to take the bait and suddenly turned back. Unexpectedly, he faced him face to face, with the tip of his nose facing his chin, He Jin was so startled that he almost jumped on top of him!
"You're really poor." Qin Yang sneered, holding up his wet hands, with an expression expecting He Jin to rush up and hug him.
He Jin felt palpitations for no reason, put his mind blankly into his pocket, touched it, and immediately took two steps back to put on his glasses: "You are so naive."
Qin Yang: "..."
He Jin was sweeping the floor outside, and Qin Yang came out to clean the windows, the two of them worked peacefully for a while, Qin Yang asked him, "Hey, do you have any brothers or sisters?"
He Jin challenged him: "Why, do you want to recognize me as your brother?"
Qin Yang snorted: "You have a good idea, we can't tell who is older and who is younger when we go out."
He Jin: "..."
After a few seconds, He Jin suddenly said: "There used to be one."
Qin Yang stopped the movements of his hands: "Huh?"
He Jin also paused his hands, and said, "I have an older brother who died when I was five years old."
Qin Yang: "... sorry."
"It's okay." He Jin lifted the ashes from the dustpan into the trash can, "I was very young at that time, so I don't have much memory."
Qin Yang's heart was a little heavy: "Can I ask why you left?"
"It seems to be sick." He Jin didn't know what kind of illness he had, and he didn't realize it at that time. After he grew up, he asked his parents several times, which caused quite a stir at home. As soon as her brother was mentioned in front of her, the woman would become extremely nervous and lose her mind for several days. After she calmed down, she would intensify her control over He Jin.
Maybe losing a child in the early years, white hair and black hair, will probably have such a heart disease, which is why He Jin never dared to rebel since he was a child.
Qin Yang didn't ask any more questions, He Jin was worried that the atmosphere was too oppressive, so he threw the question back: "Do you have any?"
Qin Yang jumped off the low stool and went to the bathroom: "Yes, I have a younger brother and a younger sister."
He Jin: "My own? So many!"
"No, half-brother." Qin Yang's voice came from the bathroom, echoing with the tiles, which suddenly gave the dormitory a different smell, "It's common to speak from your own birth, not many people have it now. Brothers and sisters?"
He Jin was taken aback for a moment: "Eh... your parents are divorced?"
Qin Yang: "No, it's because my mother left early, and my father got married again."
He Jin put the dustpan against the wall, and followed him in to wash the mop: "It seems that I should say sorry this time."
"Why do you say sorry? My stepmother is very kind to me," Qin Yang went over to snatch his mop, "Here, you clean the bathroom."
He Jin couldn't compete with him, so he had to let him go, "Then how old are your brothers and sisters?" He Jin said as he put on rubber gloves and went to clean the toilet first.
"It's still very small." Qin Yang compared the height with his hands, "Two little ones, they just went to elementary school."
He Jin: "Both go to elementary school? Twins?"
"No, it's been a year." Qin Yang thought for a while, "my brother is older, but my brother seems to be a little shorter than my sister."
He Jin smiled and said, "Hehe, are they clinging to you?"
Qin Yang: "My younger sister is clingy, my younger brother is afraid of me."
He Jin: "Why? Don't you treat everyone equally?"
Qin Yang stretched out his fist: "It's too skinny, I want to beat him up."
